A coil component includes a body, a coil portion disposed in the body, first and second external electrodes spaced apart from each other on one surface of the body and respectively connected to the coil portion, and a marking portion disposed on the one surface of the body and penetrating through the second external electrode.

A coil component includes: a body including a molded portion having one surface and the other surface opposing each other, and a cover portion disposed on the one surface of the molded portion; a wound coil disposed between the molded portion and the cover portion in the body, and having first and second lead-out portions extending to one surface of the body; a first recess portion disposed in the one surface of the body; a first external electrode disposed on the one surface of the body to be connected to the first lead-out portion, and disposed along a surface of the first recess portion to have a first groove disposed therein; and a second external electrode disposed on the one surface of the body and connected to the second lead-out portion.

A transformer for mounting on a mast of an air-insulated energy distribution network has a core which is protected against corrosion and environmental influences, while at the same time stable retention is provided. The transformer contains a winding block having a solid insulating body, in which at least one upper voltage winding and at least one lower voltage winding are arranged. The winding block delimits a completely peripherally closed central retention opening. Furthermore, a core unit is provided which has at least one magnetizable core and is inductively coupled to each lower voltage winding by each upper voltage winding. The core unit extends through the retention opening via at least one core leg and annularly extends around the winding block on the outside by a ring portion. Retention devices are provided for fastening the ring portion to the mast.

An inductor element includes a first conductive portion, a second conductive portion, and a magnetic core. The first conductive portion includes a first round-about portion, a first mount portion, and a second mount portion. The second conductive portion includes a second round-about portion, a third mount portion, and a fourth mount portion. The magnetic core houses at least a part of the first and second conductive portions so that each mount surface of the first to fourth mount portions is exposed from one side of the magnetic core. The first and second conductive portions are arranged so that the first and second directions are substantially parallel and opposite to each other. The first and third mount portions are at least partially overlapped with each other in a third direction perpendicular to the first and second directions.

An inductor component includes a core including a substantially column-shaped shaft and a pair of supports provided at both ends of the shaft; terminal electrodes provided on the supports; a wire wound around the shaft and including end portions connected to the terminal electrodes; and a bottom cover member that covers a boundary portion between the shaft and one of the supports at a bottom of the shaft. The wire is exposed at a side of the shaft.

The invention comprises an apparatus, comprising: an inductor, the inductor comprising: an electrical turn about an inductor core, the inductor core comprising a ring shape; the electrical turn comprising a first width at a first radial distance from a center of the inductor core and a second width at a second radial distance from the center, the second width at least ten percent larger than the first width. Optionally and preferably, the electrical turn comprises: a first cast element and a second cast element and a mechanical connection connecting the first cast element to the second cast element, such as an aluminum weld.

A reactor includes a coil, a magnetic core having an inner core portion arranged inside a winding portion, and an inner interposed member insulating the winding portion from the inner core portion. The inner interposed member includes a thin portion with a small thickness, and a thick portion with a thickness larger than that of the thin portion. The inner core portion includes, on an outer peripheral face facing the inner interposed member, a core-side projecting portion with a shape conforming to a shape of the inner peripheral face of the thin portion. The thickness of the thin portion is 0.2 mm or more and 1.0 mm or less, and the thickness of the thick portion is 1.1 mm or more and 2.5 mm or less. There is a clearance in at least part of a portion between the inner interposed member and the winding portion.

An electrical component includes an electrical part and a flat carrier on which the electrical part is disposed. A housing accommodates the carrier with the electrical part such that the part on the carrier is situated opposite a housing section to which the carrier is connected. An annular casing composed of a flexible material completely surrounds the electrical part and bears against the carrier by way of its first end and against the housing section by way of its second end. A potting compound surrounds the electrical part within the casing and at least partially fills the free volume. A method for producing an electrical component is also provided.

A reactor including: a coil including a pair of winding portions that are arranged side by side; a magnetic core including inner core portions that are provided inside the winding portions, and an outer core portion that is exposed to the outside from the winding portions; and a casing that houses a combined member that includes the coil and the magnetic core combined with each other. The casing includes: a bottom plate on which the combined member is placed; and a side wall that stands on the bottom plate, and the side wall is provided with a cutout for the core, through which at least a portion of the outer core portion is exposed to the outside of the casing.

An ignition coil includes a not-illustrated coil, a plate assembly, and a case assembly. The plate assembly and the case assembly are combined with each other by laser welding at a recess and a rib (projection) which are respective abutting portions, thereby forming storage spaces for storing the coil.
